Generational (knee) support

A plõks (snap) from the general seating area, the hillside, of Tallinn's laulu/väljak (song festival grounds) during the first concert evening, July 6, just after the laulu/peo/tuli (song festival flame) was lit atop the tule/torn ("flame tower", also lighthouse, but not in this case) by the laulu/lava (song stage), where it burned for two days. Laulu/pidu and tantsu/pidu are multigenerational events, as can be seen in this photo. A süle/laps ("lap child") is being held süles (cradled) by his/her mother, wearing a beautiful folk costume hailing from somewhere in northern Estonia. Meanwhile, a mudilane (toddler) is being supported by the knee of his/her previous generation (eelmise põlve põlv), proving that this is a PÕLVEST PÕLVE ("from generation to generation") event, not to mention a "knee to knee" event (NB – the rong/käik – 5 km long procession of participating singers and dancers preceding the first concert), which brought folks together from (many a) sea to (this) shining sea.
